So today was day 1 of the challenge. I know for me, especially being sick, I was NOT prepared for this challenge. I did print out Michi's Ladder and I am carrying it in my purse and pulling it out before all meals. What I'm not prepared for was I did not shop at all so have no real healthy foods/snacks available except what I just happen to have on hand!
So, how did I do on day 1? Not as bad as expected. I did realize its hard when you are not prepared! So, that said, I am officially making this week the un-official week of the challenge. Meaning, this week is the week to learn Michi's Ladder, learn the rules, log into the thread and say hi and get organized, begin your check-ins (even though they do not count). This is the week to try it out and make the mistakes, because our official challenge date will begin on Monday! Meaning, eating will need to be 100% clean on Monday! and pictures must be taken by Sunday!
How did my day go?
Breakfast- Shakeology with a cup of coffee and creamer. (I will be buying FF milk to replace the creamer!)
Snack was just a little bit of nuts
Lunch- a cup of black bean soup and a half a turkey sandwich with lettuce and tomato on whole grain bread. (I need to see what dressings/condiments if any are on our list?? So, today I went plain!)
Snack, not prepared for snack 2, but had another small thing of nuts. Both snacks probably were really only about 1.5 serving sizes. And, 2 portions of nuts is higher in fat then I wanted. So, snack 2 is where I really failed!
Dinner was a chicken caesar wrap with some cole slaw. Not sure if cole slaw is on the list?? I know cabbage is, but really I don't know what "sauce" is in cole slaw so that may not count? As noted above, I'm not sure what dressings are in? So, my caesar dressing in my wrap was possibly out? I need to check? I had a sun dried tomato tortilla wrap, not a whole wheat- is that part of it? Again, I need to really look at Michi's Ladder and get it all straight.
Because I realized 1 day, unplanned, is really not enough time, I have extended the start date of the challenge until Monday. So, please take the time and really think about joining our challenge. I hear others on Barbie's challenge are dropping the pounds, so let's BRING IT! You have this week to learn, test, plan and make mistakes. Because next week, we get STRONG and will go for it! Are you in?
